"These shorts are super uncomfortable..." Sayori starts playing with the shorts in attempt to make them less tight. She then trips and falls on her ass "Dammit! I think I grabbed the wrong pair!"

"Need help?" Yuri stands over her. Sayori lifts her hands up and Yuri pulls her up. "What happened?"

"These things are trying to squeeze my insides!" Sayori says, with an exaggerated expression.

Natsuki appears behind them, most likely hearing the whole thing. "You can borrow mine." Natsuki says, waving a pair in the air.

"Are you sure they would fit her?" Yuri asks.

Natsuki's eyes shoot through Yuri's head. "What?"

Yuri looks down in embarrasment. "Sorry! I- I didn't mean..."

"Alright! Alright! I forgive you! Jeez..." Natsuki says.

"S- Sorry..." Yuri mumbles.

"Wait a second... Sayori!" Natsuki shouts.

"Ah!"

"Those are my shorts!" Natsuki points at the mentioned clothing.

"Wait really?"

"Yes!"

"That's why they didn't fit!" Sayori says, shockingly.

"Yeah, ya think!? Take them off before you stretch them! Or rip them!" Natsuki says.

Sayori begins to take them off frantically.

"Stop!" Natsuki says quickly looking away. "Not in front of us! Do it in private so we don't have to look at that!" But it's too late, as Sayori is exposed in her underwear.

Monika then walks over. "Hey wh-"

Sayori nervously laughs.

"Do I wanna know?" Monika looks at Yuri and Natsuki.

"Probably..." Yuri says, while looking down.

The four teens soon walk and are headed to the near lake, after about an hour of walking through branches, going up hills, Natsuki trying to act tough and Sayori asking for food. They reach a big open area with a waterfall.

"Whoa!" Monika examines the beauty of the area.

"Shouldn't we have brought swimsuits or something?" Natsuki asks.

"The water is two feet." Monika says.

"Are you sure?"

Monika puts down all her stuff and sets foot in the cold water. "See?"

Sayori gets in with her. "Wow! This is freezing cold!"

Natsuki joins them. The water just barely touches her thighs, due to her height.

Yuri walks in aswell. "This feels nice actually."

"Inde-" Sayori suddenly trips and falls directly into the water.

Monika rushes over to help. "You okay-" She is suddenly pulled down by Sayori, who gets out of the water laughing. Monika laughs along aswell. "Careful Sayori!"

"You guys are soaking now!" Natsuki says.

"So are you." Monika says.

"Wha-" Natsuki is suddenly splashed in the face. "Not cool!" She kicks the water at Monika, which hits Yuri in the process.

"My... My shirt..." Yuri looks down.

"Erm... Sorry!" Natsuki says, embarrased.

Yuri looks down, she feels a strange emotion. The other girls stop to make sure shes okay.

"You okay? Sorry we kinda got out of hand..." Monika says, worriedly.

Yuri doesn't know what, or how. But her hands find themselves splashing back at Natsuki.

Natsuki looks at her in shock. "Did... Did you just splash me!?"

Yuri lets out a laugh. Something feels right. As if she was born to splash her friends with water. As she proceeds to splash Monika and Sayori while chuckling.

"So it's like that huh?" Sayori suddenly splashes back and the other girls retreat. "Ah ha!"

"Stop it!" Natsuki says, while trying to throw water back at Sayori.

The girls soon find themselves splashing water at eachother, and sometimes falling in. As if forgetting about all the problems they deal with at home, and not giving a single care for the world. After a little while, Monika gets out of the water and lays down on the ground, laughing. The other follow and lay next to eachother. No one says anything but they're all thinking about how fun it was just to simply splash each other. Yuri stops to think to herself on how she was able to overcome her anxiety and just go with the flow, how she didn't feel like she was dissapointing the others for once. She felt... Comfortable... They all lay in silence, not thinking about time or anything. But soon Monika realizes how late it's getting and gets up before it gets too dark.

"Come on guys." Monika says softly.

~

They walk back together still soaking wet and soon reach their camp. Monika starts a fire and the girls huddle close for warmth.

"Can't believe you actually splashed me!" Natsuki says towards Yuri.

"Ah... I... I don't know what came over me... I'm really sorry..." Yuri feels the anxiety coming back.

"What? Don't be sorry! I thought it was pretty cool!" Natsuki exclaims.

"R- Really?" Yuri's heart lights up a bit.

"Of course!" Natsuki says.

Yuri feels herself relax again

"Yeah, it was pretty cool, I was worried for a sec!" Monika says.

"You should show that side of you more often." Sayori suggest. "I like it."

Yuri smiles. "Th- Thank you guys..."

"What does our leader have planned for tonight?" Natsuki asks.

"Tonight?" Monika lets out a slight chuckle. "Tonight we shall sleep early!" Monika slowly scoots towards the tent.

"You're tired aren't you?" Natsuki says.

"Very."

"Nice try, but as Vice President I will not allow that!" Sayori grabs Monika's arm and pulls her back.

Monika makes a slight 'hmm' noise.

Yuri chuckles. "I didn't think it was possible to see you this tired before, Monika."

"My body has given up or something today." Monika shrugs.

"What are we supposed to do without our club President for tonight?" Natsuki asks. "Come on, we have the whole night to do whatever we want!"

Monika looks down and thinks for a moment. "Anything in the world?" Monika smirks again.

"Hey I don't like that smile." Sayori says.

"Great idea!" Monika says with sudden force. "Natsuki!"

"Huh?"

"Right now, if you could do anything in the world, what would you do?" Monika asks.

"Me? Oh I'd get rid of my dumb dad and be like... Super rich, maybe even find that 'one' special person in my life." Natsuki says. "Wait why did I say that so willingly?"

Monika shrugs. "Sayori! Now you! What you do if you could do anything?"

"Save all the animals!" She squeaks.

Monika giggles. "That's very sw-"

"And eat all the food."

"I thought that would be your first choice." Natsuki says.

"What about you Yuri?" Monika asks.

"Me? Oh... I'd give it to someone who deserves that kind of power. I wouldn't be worth the effort."

Natsuki scoffs. "That's such a lame answer."

Yuri looks down. "Maybe..."

"What about you Monika?" Sayori asks.

"Oh, I'd be responsible with my power."

"Wow, I didn't think an answer could be more lame than Yuri's" Natsuki says.

"Hey..." Yuri mumbles.

"Well sometimes the best answers aren't always the coolest." Monika explains.

"Hmph."
